Emmanuel Panther, known to his friends as Manny, joined the Harriers just before the transfer deadline closed on August 31st 2012.

He was well known for his time at York City where he competed in over 130 games for the Minstermen and drew plaudits for his game whenever he played against us.

He started his career in his native Scotland with St Johnstone and then moved to other clubs North of the border until joining up with City in August 2005. Following his time with them he moved all the way to the other end of the country to Exeter but failed to settle in there and leaving after two seasons for Morecambe.

The last club he played for before he arrived at Aggborough was Grimsby Town but again he failed to make ant impression there and only appeared eleven times for them.

The tall, strong midfielder will be hoping to become an asset for the Harriers and the fans will be hoping exactly the same too.
